"...with 800 pages and new material including artworks by Jeff Koons its hard to imagine a more exhaustive exploration of the Ali myth...GOAT, as they're calling it, enables you to recreate the sensation of being knocked cold by Ali yourself either by dropping it on your head (it weighs 29 kg and measures 50cm square), or by looking at the price (it costs a very reasonable £2,000)."

"This is a Champion`s Belt given to one of the greatest athletes on the earth, Muhammad Ali from TASCHEN."

"Everything about this monument to the 20th century's greatest athlete is deliberately enormous, to reflect the scale of its subject's achievement.( )...the buyer gets not so much a book as a work of art that is bound to become a collector's item."

"Un libro epico, unico ed eccezionale quanto lo straordianrio personaggio cui è dedicato".

"This 75-pound monster-tome is a homage from one of the greatest in the publishing world to the greatest boxer of all time. Benedikt Taschen, of the TASCHEN publishing house, spent four years producing the physically biggest book of all time-a fitting tribute to Muhammad Ali."

"GOAT (Greatest of All Time) is one of the more remarkable feats in publishing history… Like everything about Ali, it is outsized and remarkable. Limited to 10,000 individually numbered and signed copies, the book has 792 pages. It comes with its own exhibit stand and because it is obvious no one but the Governor of California could take it to bed to read, it is accompanied by nine volumes in which each chapter is reprinted."

"Déjà il y a quatre ans, la sortie du très très porno chic SUMO d'Helmut Newton avait suscité de nombreuses interrogations d'ordre pratique. On aurait pu croire Benedikt Taschen assagi. Erreur. En découvrant GOAT (Greatest Of All Time), le dernier né surdimensionné du turbulent éditeur allemand, la première question que l'on se pose est de savoir si Habitat aura une bibliothèque assez grande pour accueillir ce mastodonte. Herr Taschen voulait sortir une biographie exceptionnelle ou les images ne voleraient pas la vedette à l'écrit. Un livre de légende sur une légende. Mais qui ? Avec ses 56 victoires et ses 9 ceintures, Mohammed Ali s'est vite imposé. GOAT retrace en 792 pages et à travers des milliers de clichés la vie du poids lourd le plus adulé de l'histoire de la boxe. Des photos de ses combats mythiques, dont celui contre George Foreman au Zaïre, des instants historiques, intimes et insolites où l'on croise les Beatles, Malcolm X ou encore Nelson Mandela. Côté texte, les signatures les plus prestigieuses se bousculent pour raconter la vie du champion. De Norman Mailer à Hunter S. Thompson, l'ouvrage regorge de témoignages d'écrivains, de personnalités et de proches".

"El libro, brillantemente producido, con 3000 fotos que recogen cronológicamente su gloriosa carrera, pondrá a prueba las más robustas mesas de café. El voluminosos tomo pesa 34 kilos."

"(…) hoy por fin la he tenido en mis manos. O sería más correcto decir que él me ha tenido a mí, o que yo traté de sujetarlo ante la estupefacción de quienes me rodeaban."

"Dos años después de que la editorial TASCHEN sacara el libro de gran formato SUMO con imágenes del fotógrafo Helmut Newton, vuelve a la carga con otro libro escultura. Se trata del tomo titulado "GOAT. A tribute to Muhammad Ali". Algunas de sus cifras son: 37 kilogramos, 800 páginas, un formato de 50x50, unas 600.000 palabras dedicadas al boxeador y más de 3.000 fotografías del también conocido como Cassius Clay. El libro saldrá a la venta el próximo mes de marzo."
